Our offering to individuals

HorsePower® | solid awareness and personal leadership

Many personal development programs focus on insights and techniques. But those who truly want to grow need more: the ability to handle stress with resilience, communicate clearly, make decisions, and create meaningful impact in everyday life.

The HorsePower® model makes these often invisible yet essential qualities tangible and experiential. Horses do not respond to what you say or think you are, but to what is truly present: your energy, intention, and authenticity. Their feedback is direct, pure, and without judgment. As a result, you gain honest and clear insight into how you relate to yourself and others — and where your true growth potential lies.

Our themes

Sarah – Manager from Diest

“The power of horses has given me more insight into my own strength, which was hidden under many layers of thinking, instead of feeling. It also helped me gain more confidence in dealing with these big gentle giants. And with it more confidence in life and everything that presents itself. Working with horses in this way, in such a beautiful place, is extremely valuable and unique!” 
Sarah

Heidi, Caitlin and Meaghan

“Dear Els and Ilse,
Thanks for the 3 cool back to basics days. It was a great awakening between the horses, birds and swallows. Dissined with a nice breakfast and fresh eggs. We found it a very nice and educational workshop with Ilse and we will definitely try to continue. Good luck to you. Greetings, Heidi, Caitlin and Meaghan”

Iris

“My horse was getting too old to compete anymore. Until I attended the groundwork workshop. Really cool, I didn't know there could be so much interaction between her and me. The horses of Rommersum are sweethearts. It was a very interesting course. ”

Ivo

“I received the booklet and the workshop The Silent Language as a gift from my wife and I really thought this was not for me. I like to see horses, from a distance. But the theory was interesting. It took a moment to pause and understand how things work... and then applying this to the horses was great. Each participant at their own pace. I thought that was well done. It was an exciting day that flew by quickly. Ilse is a good hostess who delivers the workshop professionally. Recommended. Ivo”

Marijke

“Dear Ilse,
Coaching means going into depth. But it's so nice to give each other feedback in the middle of the horses. Forget everything for a moment and pay attention to yourself. And pay attention to pain points, to allow them to surface and release without too much pain. Indeed in a place in the here and now. Realizing that we are all perfectly fine. We can be there. Thank you. I return home with a warm feeling and a broad smile. Grateful and full of love. Love Marijke”

Vrouwelijk netwerk

Our networking event (with 15 participants) on female leadership was an afternoon session combining theory, observation with horses, and reflective conversation over a drink. The exchange between participants flowed naturally from the start — but the real magic happened when we got to feel the theory inside the round pen, together with Oya, the intuitive lead mare of the herd.

Oya invited us to slow down, to be truly present in the moment, and to connect without words. What was remarkable was how each woman, in her own way, was mirrored in her leadership. Some discovered how strong their presence already was, while others realized how often they still make themselves ‘small.’ But we all felt the same truth: leadership begins within — and the herd senses instantly whether you are truly there.

This event became a deeply unique experience. An absolute must for every woman entrepreneur who wants to make her mark in a still male-dominated world.

Eline from Wellen

“I followed the leadership workshop and first I thought: how can horses help? But what an experience! Those horses really show how to use leadership, without feeling bad for them. I will definitely take this to our company. Thanks Ilse for the nice explanation. “

An uit Landen

“They hit the nail on the head — the observations, comments, and insights my horse coach noted during the scan session. They perfectly captured how I felt in that moment, who I am, and where I still have some room to grow. And that report afterwards… I have no words for it. How is that even possible?”

 
 

Koen - entrepreneur Kempen

“Why did Oya, that beautiful pregnant mare, stand with her head against my head? And why did Ucardo do exactly the same thing? Why, during another session, did two young stallions chase us away from under the walnut tree where we were reasoning? Because I was in my head too much. Literal. When I went back to feeling and let the feeling speak from my stomach, Diamond suddenly appeared. He came to say it was okay and went straight to my stomach. Magic. It brings tears to my eyes again. Thank you Ilse and the horses of Rommersum. A reborn coachee, Koen”

Team event rond communicatie

“With our team of seven, we took part in the full-day workshop The Silent Language at Horse Act. No role-playing, but a genuine experience centered around non-verbal communication — together with the horses. We began with a short theoretical introduction about body language, intention, and the power of energy in communication. Then we went to the paddock to work with the Horse Act horses. Each team member had the opportunity to connect with a horse, individually or in pairs — without words. Only through presence, posture, breathing, and inner calm. Over the course of the day, the atmosphere in our team shifted. There was more calm, more real listening.

The feedback afterwards was unanimously positive. We learned that communication is so much more than what you say. Highly recommended for any team that wants to grow in mutual understanding and respectful alignment.”
